3rd picture down - the aqua unit with larger drawers: I would die if I could find this for pattern storage in my sewing studio. I already have commercial pattern drawers - but to find old wooden ones...Love!

I live in Boise Idaho and went to an indoor flea market a month or so ago and there was a vendor there who had 2 or 3 of them. I think there was a smaller one with perhaps 12 or 16 drawers for about $80, but that is a rough estimate from my memory. This event will happen again the weekend of March 24 and I plan to go back and see that vendor again.

I have a 36drawer card catalogue from the Berkeley (CA) school system that I use to store a portion of my yarn stash. I love using it for this! I had previously used it to store cassette tapes, so I've had it for awhile (about 25 years)

What a great post. I have always loved these units and shudder to think how many were discarded at libraries when they went to computers.I have three metal units I found at garage sales over the years I think they were all parts storage. Two larger ones in good condition and one small one infair condition. I use them to store my crafts/sewing supplies, etc. The best part one was free and the othersaround $5. Would love to have wooden ones, but where would I put it? :)

Look on your local Craigslist as well as eBay. For ebay, you'll see a lot that aren't in your area, but for a single drawer, they'll probably ship it. You may need to be patient to find the right thing for a price you're willing to pay, but they're out there.
